Sinanju driving truck at LA1 Bannockburn

S3 licensed
Made new layout on the Large Area autocross area, which I've called 'Bannockburn'.



Driving the LCT3000 Truck mod (by Cimanu), using my new Ukraine flag skin that I made.

Track circuit layout is fairy long at 3.19 miles / 5.13 km in length.

As I used the max 2,400 objects, not much in the way of trackside objects scenery.

As usual, all objects placed by hand and eye (but not always with good coordination).

Hi, sorry, but can you also check the "16" on the numbered skin.

This one is called 'Pentland Park', although this is 2nd version of the layout. First version I made was slightly longer with some more corners.

Driving the LCT3000 Truck mod by Cimanu, which I then made and used with a new Ukraine flag skin.

Track layout is 2.02 miles / 3.25 km in length.

I should have stiffened front suspension though.

Very controllable car when using keys to steer, accelerate and brake.

Not sure what your "Virtual Desktop" is, but, I have Oculus Rift, and I can do the following;

Put on Rift headset, which opens Oculus software, both on my desktop and in the headset.

In the headset, you can see the Oculus Home screen and at bottom of headset screen, you see a curved Oculus panel, with various buttons for Explore, Library, Store, etc.

You can also see the whole Windows desktop, inluding the Task Bar at bottom of screen.

If I launch LFD (click LFS, which is on my Task Bar) with an Oculus Controller, then LFS opens up as normal, but there is a transuscent 'Tracking Setup' screen overlaid, so you can set up headset position.



Using normal windows or Oculus to launch LFS both work for using Rift headset, so don't know why you would want to use anything else.

Or is your Virtual Desktop some sort of VPN?

Can you open LFS in normal desktop, then run LFS in 3D then?

To run LFS in 3D, while in program, you need to SHIFT O, then choose 3D option at top of screen.

And what kind of VR kit are you using?

And have you used the SEARCH function of this forum?

There's a huge (and because of mods, now slightly out of date) post that specifically logs most of the suggestions put forward for improving the game - https://www.lfs.net/forum/thre ... re-making-a-new-thread%5D

Your suggestion is #2 on list (and could also be included in #1).

As for someone who's done over 10,000 times more laps than you, has paid for an S3 license, and has been a member for over 10 years (as against your not quite 1 month) I think rane_nbg has the right to give his opinion on your post. And without being vilified for doing so.

Novel idea, although maybe you can ask the server owners to make mandatory pit stops during race to make the race more strategic?

Have you looked at the error log in the \bin\default\logs\xxxxx-ERR.log file to see if that helps narrow fault down?

And what version of lapper are you using?

Tried to use the 'debug HMD type' in CV1 mode, on my Oculus Rift CV1, but on the 3 attempts I made to run it, my Rift stopped working each time with an HDMI cable connection error.

Tried taking HDMI cable out of both pc and headset, and reconnecting both ends, but still same issue.

On each attempt, even after closing the debug program, still couldn't get my Rift to work, and had to go into Task Manager to close all the Oculus processes down. Also closed LFS. Once I'd done all that, re-started LFS in 3d mode, which opened Oculus, and Rift working again.

Any reason for not just using the SteamVR Performance Test?

Admittedly, you can't change default resolution for test, but if it won't pass default, then no way will it go larger resolution.

Quote from gu3st :You may be able to install Oculus software and then in Oculus Debug Tool there's a "debug HMD type" option.

Couldn't find this setting after opening the Debug Tool.

Single lap of Large Area layout called AutoX Arena.



Short lap of only 0.81 miles / 1,310 meters.

Really more suited for drifting than racing.

The problem with keyboard is that you can't just hold down the left or right key as the corner radius isn't usually same as turning circle of your car, so you end up tap tap tapping away, which unbalances the car. Turning car by tapping away is probably as bad as constantly flooring the accelerator, lifting, flooring, lifting... when driving in a corner.

For cars like RB4, which will drift turn a bit, it's easy to catch when playing with keys, but cars like the FZ5 and RAC usually end up spinning.

Sinanju driving GM SST Shark C at LA1 Dunedin2

Single hotlap driving modded car round layout I made on the LA1 Large Area autocross I've called Dunedin2.



Total lap distance is 1.93 miles / 3.10 km.



My original Dunedin layout slightly smaller, as it was made to fit AU1.

Modded car is the GM SST Shark C, by henricat2006.

Used default settings, but with keyboard, as you'll see in the video, the brakes tend to lock up front wheels.

With hindsight, I should have done at least a single lap before recording, but I thought it should be ok.
